Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Clark, CO.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they receive addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Clark can include detoxification services which are safely administered with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
